Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
Revenue recognition
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of rebates and discounts.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax, and is recognised in profit or loss.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between taxable profits and profits reported in the financial statements, and is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
Motor vehicles |
25% per annum on reducing balance |
Computer equipment |
25% per annum on cost |
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on the acquisition of an entity represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the company’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the entity recognised at the date of acquisition; it is initially recognised as an asset at cost and is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation.
Amortisation
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:
Asset class |
Amortisation method and rate |
Goodwill |
20% per annum on cost |
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business, and are recognised initially at the transaction price.
Assets held under hire purchase agreements
Assets held under hire purchase agreements are capitalised at their original cost and depreciated in accordance with the company's policy as shown above.
The obligation to the hire purchase company is included in creditors in the Balance Sheet; repayments are apportioned between interest payable in the Profit and Loss Account and reduction of the hire purchase obligation, so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
Dividends
Dividend distribution to the company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.
